About the Book

Title: The
Secrets of Yashire

Author: Diamante Lavendar

Genre: YA Fantasy

The Secrets of Yashire: Emerging From the Shadows is a young adult fantasy
adventure that occurs within the framework of a young girl’s subconscious mind.
The main character, Brianna, finds herself thrown into a world called Yashire where she is forced to deal with circumstances that are
threatening Yashire’s existence. Against her will, she is
sent on a journey to restore unconditional love back to the land while also
contending with the evil force in the land, Zolan. Brianna is sent on her
mission by Libban, Keeper of the Land. Along the way, Brianna travels with the
mystical tiger, Angelos; a huge, whitish-tan tiger with thick black stripes who
sings only the purest songs of love, and the wondrous little one-eyed bird
named Abiba. During the journey, Brianna is also preparing to meet her
soulmate—the one she longs to be with and the one who will bring complete
healing back into her life. Together they travel through fantastic lands filled
with magical creatures that could only exist in the
wildest of imaginations. Through her treacherous brushes with danger and
heartwarming experiences of love and acceptance, Brianna discovers many things.
It is here, amidst the powers and phantasms of the mind that Brianna receives
life lessons and virtues to help her. Will one of her greatest triumphs be
achieved as she learns to believe in herself? For only then can she truly see
all of the wondrous things that life has to offer.

Author Bio

Diamante Lavendar has been in love with
reading since she was a child. She spent many hours listening to her mother
read to her when she was young. As she grew older, she enjoyed reading novels
of all genres: horror, fantasy and some romance to name a few.

She began writing in college and published
some poetry in anthologies over the years. After her kids were older, she wrote
as a form of self expression and decided she wanted to share her stories with
others.

Most of her writing is very personal and
stems from her own experiences and those of her family and friends. She writes
to encourage hope and possibility to those who read her stories.

Diamante believes that everyone should try
to leave their own positive mark in the world, to make it a better place for
all. Writing is the way that she is attempting to leave her mark—one story at a
time.
